A Pledge to God (A Promise with the Gods / Singwaui Yaksok / 신과의 약속)

Mr. Song.

I came here after hearing...

that you were meeting my father.

Are you trying to stop me?

What do you mean?

You're pregnant?

Yes, Father.

I didn't tell you in advance in case it wasn't certain,

but it's for certain now.

I'll only believe it once I see it.

If I fail again,

you can kick me out of the house.

This is your grandson...

whom I gave birth to.

She's been...

deceiving me all along.

She has duped me.

Did you tell him?

I thought he already knew.

He didn't.

How could you not tell him?

I heard Hyeon Woo heard from his grandmother.

That means she knew...

but refused to tell.

I begged her not to tell my father.

I see.

I get it now.

You wanted to protect the security of your family.

In order to run your company,

you probably needed Na Kyung's support as well.

Mr. Song...

Ji Young...

lived with a hole in her heart after sending Joon Seo away.

If you had thought of how Ji Young...

must've lived her life in agony...

while you were living a great life with your family,

you would've at least disclosed whom Joon Seo's mother was.

Isn't that...

the least you could do for her sacrifice?

I've always lived...

a life of atonement because of Hyeon Woo and Ji Young.

But now, you want Hyeon Woo back?

And you dare to offer me some land in exchange for my son?

What do you mean?

Don't you dare touch him.

If you harass our family one more time,

I will reveal your family's crime and hypocrisy...

to the entire world.

You better believe that.

Sir, the chairman did not want anyone to enter.

Okay.

I said I wanted to be alone.

I asked you...

not to interfere in anything regarding Hyeon Woo, Father.

How dare you!

How dare you deceive me for the past 10 years?

If it's about Joon Seo, please ignore it.

What?

Please turn a blind eye.

How could you ask me for such a ridiculous favor?

No matter what it may be, I can't forgive you for deceiving me!

And 10 years, at that!

I did it to protect my family!

Is this why you threatened me,

saying that you'd move out?

"I don't need to see that old man."

You thought it was that easy.

No, I didn't.

Then how dare you deceive me?

Do you know what the easiest thing to do is?

It's when you decide to deceive someone...

and begin lying through your teeth!

Please turn a blind eye.

I beg you.

For Joon Seo.

You disgust me! Leave!

Where have you been?

I had business to attend to.

What is this?

It's nothing.

You met someone, didn't you?

Did you...

go to Seoul?

I met Chairman Kim Sang Chun.

Did he send this?

I told him that if he stole Hyeon Woo from us,

I would tell the entire world about Joon Seo.

Honey.

Don't worry.

They may hurt others,

but they'll never be able to do anything...

that'll harm their reputation.

Then...

Did he also know about Joon Seo?

That doesn't matter anymore.

From now on,

I'll protect Hyeon Woo.

Hyeon Woo.

Yes?

What are you doing?

Oh, my.

Did you draw this?

Well, yes.

It looks nice.

Will you allow me to live in this kind of house?

Of course.

If I can't, Joon Seo will.

Do you want to live at your grandpa's in Seoul?

That's not what I meant.

It's all right.

I just want to hear your thoughts.

If they send Joon Seo over,

I'm fine with living at their house.

Hyeon Woo.

Yes?

Once you grow older,

I have no plans to interfere in your decisions.

I'm sure Dad feels the same way.

But...

I'd like for you to stay by my side for the time being.

Don't think about switching places with Joon Seo.

Still,

I want to see you living with him.

Later.

Aren't you hungry? Let's eat.

Okay.

Here.

Chew well.

Let him eat on his own.

Last time, he swallowed a fish bone and had such a hard time.

You shouldn't dote on your kid too much in front of the elders.

Eat up.

Okay.

Try this.

I'll grant you a wish. Tell me.

If I do something wrong,

let it slide once.

Did you do something wrong?

In case it happens.

That little...

What is it?

- What? - I mean,

what are you doing while eating?

Oh, sorry. My mind drifted away for a bit.

You wanted salted pollack roe, but you're not eating any.

We had it this morning, so why did you prepare it again?

You asked me to.

I lost my appetite.

Are you feeling ill?

Eat up.

Did something happen at the company today?

No, everything was fine at the company.

Then?

Did something happen elsewhere?

No.

Should I prepare his tea?

- Yes, please. - Okay.

I'll bring it to him.

I handed the land registration forms to Mr. Song.

What did he say?

I'm still waiting for his reply.

The longer he takes, the better it is for us.

That means he's thinking about it,

which means he's pondering about what to do.

I guess so.

I'll wait for 2 to 3 days.

If he still hasn't replied, I'll visit him once more.

Let's wait for now. Don't be in a hurry.

Wouldn't it be better to put an end to this as soon as possible?

When Hyeon Woo becomes an adult, he'll come here on his own.

Perhaps, I was being too hasty.

I've already waited for 16 years.

Waiting 3 to 4 more years is not that difficult.

But...

It is better to be patient...

than to hurry and ruin things.

Until I bring this up again,

be patient for now.

You may leave.

Yes, Father.

He did?

Yes, he found out.

Goodness.

That's why he acted strangely during dinnertime.

How did he find out?

It's a long story.

I felt nervous ever since...

he was greedy about Hyeon Woo.

I asked him to turn a blind eye,

but I don't know if he will.

He hasn't said anything to Na Kyung so far,

so maybe he will.

What other choice does he have?

He cherishes Joon Seo very much.

Please help him.

Okay, I will.

- Hello, sir. - Hi.

She's been waiting for you.

Okay, I see.

We need to talk about something, so we'll postpone the meal.
